Description
Delicious beefy burritos filled with a savory mixture of ground beef, beans, corn, and cheese, served with homemade salsa.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 can (15 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
- 1 cup cooked rice (white or brown)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 1 cup salsa (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/2 cup sour cream (optional)
- Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef, diced onion, and minced garlic. Cook until the beef is browned and the onion is translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- Stir in the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes until the spices are fragrant.
- Add the black beans, corn, and cooked rice to the skillet. Mix well and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until heated through.
- Lay out the flour tortillas on a clean surface. Spoon an equal amount of the beef mixture onto the center of each tortilla, then sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
- Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll from the bottom up to enclose the filling completely.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the burritos seam-side down in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve warm with salsa and sour cream on the side. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the beef mixture.
- Substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option, or use a plant-based meat alternative for a vegetarian version.
